Hands to flat call in SB, HELP! Hands to flat call in SB, HELP!

Recently I checked my database together with some friend and I realized that I have too low flat calls in SB AND I SHOULD BE CALLING MORE IN SB %.

Can you help me with any ideas which type of hands are good to overcall in SB when we are facing a single raise pot against one player, SB vs Mp, CO etc
and then when we are facing a Rfi then one caller and we are to overcall in SB

are our hand category for overcall in SB is going to change a lot when we want to call against one player and we want to call vs more players ?

Tnx..

For me SB is usually not a position to make a profit from. Therefore folding more hands in the sb is better for my game.

well you haven't given us anything to work with vai

you are basically asking us to generate a generic sb mdf range for you and that's unreasonable

you should disclose your stats, explain why you feel x,y,z is a problem and then people can actually comment

otherwise, all I can help with is to say that I think you should definitely not fold AA in that spot

Depends on the raiser.

If you can outplay them and likely to be heads up, call 50%+.

If you can't outplay them more than they can outplay you, probably top 15-20% of your range.

This assumes earlier stages of tournament. When average stack is less than 15 blinds, I am in jam or fold mode.

Depends on the BB too. If he is prone to squeeze, you can flat big hands. If he plays poorly and doesn't raise much, you want to flat more.

Depends on the stack depth. Depends on the raiser's stats. Just too many variables here.

One thing I can tell you is that you want to avoid hands with RIO from OOP and deep. Forget **** like ATo and KJo for calling (though they do make OK light 3 bets).

So lets say that we have raisers stats and in the example 1 he is raising 35%
so what type of hands qualify as good defends in SB

In the Example 2 we have 15-20% raising range and now which hands qualify as good defends in SB.

///////////
Stack depth, as we are more shallow do we wonna flat hands more like 65s, 89s, J9s, or hands like ATo, KJo, LEts say we are 20bbs, or we are 40-50bbs how much these 2 stack depths affect our play if they are?
